Parks & Visitor Centers

Add to the Experience with a 3D Topographic Model

Depict the true beauty of nature through Solid Terrain Models for your National, State Park or Visitor Center. These protected areas have the most gorgeous terrain in the world, giving tourists and visitors a breathtaking and educational experience.

Solid Terrain Models enable your visitors to see the beauty of the land and understand the relationship to the surrounding environment with unprecedented clarity. First of its kind, our 3D physical terrain models have extraordinary rich color imaging applied to the dimensional surface. These models are as beautiful as they are informative; combining the world of flat maps, satellite imagery and dimensional physical terrain models.

Terrain models can help you inform and educate the public about your park’s mission and projects, orient visitors to your park or trailhead and even provide products for your gift shop.

Interpretive Center Models

When guests arrive at your Visitor Center and see the beautifully detailed full color Solid Terrain Model of the park, they will immediately be able to orient themselves to park features and facilities such as:

Campsites

Hiking Trails

Off-road Vehicle Courses

Points of Interest

Ecologically sensitive Areas

Hikers starting up a trailhead can review trail maps overlaying the actual physical terrain to get a sense of what lies ahead on their hike, in terms of both features and level of difficulty.

Retail Models

Consider giving your guests something new to remember by offering Solid Terrain Models in your gift shop or online store. Guests can take home your park’s beauty with a piece of framed dimensional topographic art.

Unlike any other mapping technology existing in the world today, Solid Terrain Models are fast, accurate and affordable. Contact us about your next park project.

We thank you for answering all their questions, as we all found it very interesting how these maps are created. Nice facility and very impressive!

Gar Clarke, NM Geospatial & Broadband Program Mgr, New Mexico DoITBesides receiving a Solid Terrain Model of exceptional quality, working with STM was a great delight. Their staff is very skilled, patient, and creative; and the willingness that STM exhibited to provide solutions was beyond most companies.

Gillian Woolmer, Assistant Director, WCS CanadaI came across Solid Terrain Modeling at a mining conference and found their geospatially accurate 3D terrain models to be really cool! These physical models can be touched and held, making them great for interactive planning with communities.

Alastair Meiklem, General Manager - Land, British Pacific Properties LimitedWe received the model late Friday and unpacked it yesterday morning… It is absolutely awesome! It’s even better than I had imagined; the 3D terrain resolution is incredible – you can see (and feel) way more features than I expected. The colours are great, the linework is great, and the overall appearance is very impressive. Well done, and thank you very much! We’ll definitely be using your services again!
